Michael's Seafood Restaurant

This was my first visit to Michael’s Seafood! We are regular visitors of Carolina Beach and every time I’ve been by, it’s always been packed! We stopped by on a Friday night (the day after Christmas) and it wasn’t crowded. My partner and I sat by the bar. Great vibe and service! Had a beer while we reviewed the menu. We ordered the crab dip, chopped salads and shared the seafood lasagna. We enjoyed our meal! Everything was incredibly delicious! We ended up coming back on Sunday for a drink and more crab dip. Unfortunately they had not made any crab dip yet so we shared the sampler. The crab cakes & aioli were good. The tempura shrimp was soggy on one side and the scallops could have been cooked a tad longer. We will be back in April to celebrate my birthday at the beach plus visit Michael’

Love, trying out what people say are the best seafood places in the area and I have to say this place did not disappoint! Sat at the bar, Courtney was my server and had wonderful knowledge of the menu and gave great recommendations. Nothing disappointed and everything we had is easily top. Chowder was amazing! Crabcakes, awesome, coleslaw top-notch! A Caesar salad with their fresh seafood salad on top absolutely incredible. Price point amazing and Thursday they have half-price appetizers. Bottom line, I rate their chowder among the best in the country! Don’t miss this place. If you are in the vicinity of any of the beaches in the Wilmington, North Carolina area!

Came and had lunch alone while I waited for my cat to get fixed. Read and ate my meal. Everything was amazing. This was my second visit and I have loved it both times. Highly recommend checking Michael's Seafood out if you're in the area. Best clam chowder I have EVER had!

Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Jane, our server, was outstanding. We had a plethora of food and tried numerous items from the menu, none of which disappointed. The seafood chowder was so thick and creamy with the perfect amount of seasoning. The huge lumps of crab were perfect. Next was the appetizer sampler. The crab cakes, tempura shrimp, and scallops wrapped in bacon had my mouth watering with delight. We shared the blackened grouper BLT and yellow fin tuna tacos that were both cooked to perfection. We did not leave hungry and will for sure be back again!

Had a really nice time at this establishment. My wife and I had a great time. The food was great. We both took home some leftovers. They actually opened up early on the Sunday after Memorial Day which is when we went there. I believe they opened at 11A. Food was great along with the service. Would definitely try again the next time we head to Carolina beach. For the appetizer we tried the sampler. The chowder was great as well.
